IWIT:- June 22., 1976
TO: The Honorable Mayor and City Council
1,12OM. Robert L. Brunton, City Manager
PF: Consider the Cottonwood PUD: Preliminary Plan
In this revision of the initial preliminary plan presented to the City Council
at its June 1, 1976, meeting, the petitioner has responded to Council concerns
about the originally proposed placement of two commercial buildings at the
corner of Stover Street and East Drake Road. The City Council had referred
the initial plain back to staff to work out a more suitable location on the
site for the commercial uses permitted by review within the planned residential.
zone. The plan is for 312 units of single -and multi -family development on
52 acres at the northeast corner of Drake Road and LeMay Avenue.
The revised plain essentially reverses the locations of the proposed day care
center, and these two commercial structures. Also, the revision relocates the
swimming pool from a southeast location to an area between the single-family
and multi -family development and provides an additional access path to the
active recreational area.
The new location for the day care center seems less appropriate than initially
proposed, and the other commercial uses seem well suited for the corner, pro-
vided City controls concerning commercial uses prevail. Because the City has
review over the nature of commercial uses within a PUD, retail commercial.
activities can be prohibited while certain office uses allowed. In that the
Council and interested citizens at the June 1, 1976, meeting appeared most con-
cerned over the possibility of retail uses on the corner, the City has the
option to allay these fears by imposing use restrictions for commercial
structures within the Cottonwood PUD.
Recommendation: The City Administration recommends that non -retail, commercial
uses allowed in the R-H,-high density residential zone, be allowed for the
non -day care commercial buildings in the Cottonwood PUD, and that the Stover
Street --Drake Road corner for such commercial activities, as proposed, continue.

RE: Cottonwood P.U.D. Final Plat
The Cottonwood P.U.D. consists of 52.28 acres of property located on the
northeast_ corner of Stover and East Drake Road. The proposed zoning is
R-L-P. TOP preliminary plans were reviewed by the City Council at its
Junp l and 22, 1976,ireptings. At its August 9, 1976. meeting the Planning
And Zoning Ward voted unanimously to recommend approval of the final plat
providing the condition; on the density and the various technical revisions
and Amenities are provided. Enclosed is a memo from the Planning Department
on this subject.
Recommendation: The Administration recommends that the City Council adopt
the iinal plat- of Cottonwood P.U.D. with the following conditions. (1.)
Thu project should be phased so that at no time will the accumulative density
ot the project exceed six units per acre. Similarly, the nonresidential use
should he developed only after the dwelling units on which they are pro-
portionat-elv haled under the P.U.D. Ordinance are developed. (2) Several
technical revisions in the plat and unit development plan concerning the loca-
tions ofsidewalks, swimming pool and fences, apartment unit numbering system
and utility easements should be complied with.

RE: Cottonwood, P.U.D.
Dear Maurice:
Telephone 303 484.4220
I have discussed the question of restricting building permits from one common
access within the Cottonwood P.U.D. with Roy Bingman. He is in agreement that
there would be no problem in the northerly section of the subdivision provided
adequate circulation within the subdivision is provided.
Specifically, once the normal conditions for receiving building permits are
met, those lots on Cambridge Drive and Vanderbilt Court may receive building
permits with a ccnTmn access to the city street system at Stover Street and
Cambridge Drive. For permits in excess of 660 feet from Stover Street, interior
circulation will be required.
If you have further questions concerning this matter, please contact me.
Sincerely,

RE: Cottonwood, P.U.D.
Dear Maurice,
Telephone 303 484-4220
This letter_ is submitted in response to the street repairs which will be necessary
on Stover Street in order to supply utility services to the Cottonwood Sid)division.
As there appears to be no other method of providing services to those lots
fr_ont.inq on Stover Street other than cutting the paving which was constructed in
1973, the City will require that if the patches settle or }x jre a maintenance
problem that the Developer place a one -inch asphalt overlay on the entire street.
I have discussed the situation with Roy Bingnv-m, Director of Engineering Services,
and he agreed that if an overlay is regliir_ed that the City would pay for one-half_
the total cost- of construction.
Sincerely,
Lloyd G. McLaughlin

Dear Mr. Hughes:
RE: Variance Request for Cottonwood P.U.D.
In review of the request for a variance to the centerline to centerline
distance between major curb cut and/or intersections we are happy to
grant your request. We are granting this request due to the pressures
of the neighborhood even though it might have an adverse affect on
traffic flow in the area. Therefore, we feel this variance should
not be used as basis for future variances.
Sincerely,

TO: Alauri. Rupel, Assistant City Engineer - Development
FROM: Philip G. Waite, Civil Engineer I - Storm Drainage
RE: Cottonwood P.U.D.
In response to 11r. Thomas ftirphy's request to be allowed to release storm
water runoff from Cottonwood P.U.D. lst phase into the existing detention
pond located in the Southeast corner of Cottonwood P.U.D., I have the fol-
lowing comments.
After reviewing the drainage runoff characteristics for Cottonwood Sub-
division it was determined that the existing detention pond does have
enough capacity to handle the runoff from the 1st phase of Cottonwood
P.U.D.
Mr. Murphy's request is hereby granted provided the following conditions
are met:
1) A grass lined drainage channel from the lst phase to the existing
pond must be provided with enough capacity to channel the 100-year
developed runoff flows produced by the 1st phase development.
2) Erosion control must be provided at all erosion prone areas. (ie.
the transition from asphalt to channel.)
At such time when the 2nd phase of Cottonwood P.U.D is built, Mr. Murphy
will be renuired to regrade the existing detention pond to match that
shown on the approved final grading and drainage plan of Cottonwood P.U.D.
by JCR Engineering and dated September 8, 1981.
